Join Us for a Joyous Eid-ul-Adha Celebration!

We are excited to extend a warm invitation to you and your family to join us for the Eid ul-Adha prayer and celebration on June 16, 2024, at the Blaisdell Center. This auspicious occasion will be a wonderful opportunity for us to come together as a community to commemorate the spirit of sacrifice and devotion exemplified by Prophet Ibrahim (AS).

The program for the day will commence with Takbeerat at 8:45 AM, followed by the Eid prayer and Khutba at 9:20 AM. After the prayer and sermon, we will gather for a delightful breakfast at 10:00 AM to share in the joyous atmosphere of Eid.

Throughout the day, there will be various activities planned for our community members of all ages. Kids can enjoy inflatable rides and engaging games, while adults can socialize and partake in snacks provided by our generous volunteers. We encourage everyone to bring their families and friends to make this Eid celebration truly memorable.

In addition, we will observe the Dhuhr prayer at 1:00 PM, followed by a scrumptious lunch at 1:20 PM. Following the prayers and lunch, we will resume our festivities, ensuring that there is something for everyone to enjoy.

We will conclude the day with the Asr prayer at 4:00 PM, followed by more fun-filled activities until 6:00 PM. There are plenty parking spaces available, but we suggest that you consider carpooling with fellow community members. Please note that the Blaisdell center charges a parking fee of $8 per vehicle.

As we eagerly anticipate this joyous occasion, let us reflect on the significance of Eid ul-Adha and the lessons of sacrifice, compassion, and generosity it embodies. Let us strive to emulate the noble qualities of Prophet Ibrahim (AS) and Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) as we come together in celebration and prayer.

We look forward to welcoming you and your loved ones to this special event. May Allah (SWT) shower His blessings upon us all on this blessed day and always.

Eid Mubarak!

Eid Mubarak

Assalaamu Alaikum,

As we take in the last moments of Ramadan, we wish to extend a heartfelt Eid Mubarak to you and all your loved ones. May this day be filled with gratitude, love, and remembrance of Allah (SWT). As we celebrate Eid, let us fervently pray to Allah (SWT) that He grant us the ability to witness another Ramadan next year.

Moreover, let us remember in our prayers the countless brothers, sisters, and dear children around the world who continue to suffer and endure oppression, persecution, and injustice. May Allah (SWT) alleviate their pain, grant them strength, and bring an end to their hardships.

During Ramadan we experienced a heightened sense of iman through increased worship, remembrance, and supplication. Let us strive to maintain this level of closeness to Allah (SWT) in the months to come.

We look forward to greeting each of you at Eid Prayer.


Warm Regards,

MAH Executive Committee

Eid al-Fitr Update

Eid al-Fitr Update

Assalaamu Alaikum dear members of the Hawaii Muslim Community,


Insha’Allah this message finds you and your loved ones in good health and peace during this blessed month of Ramadan.

We are writing to inform you of a significant update regarding our Eid al-Fitr celebration this year. The recent and ongoing events in Palestine and Gaza, including deliberate genocide, starvation, and ethnic cleansing, have deeply shaken our community and filled our hearts with sorrow for the suffering endured by our brothers and sisters in the region.

As an act of solidarity and empathy, we have made the decision to limit this year’s Eid celebration to the prayer and khutba while postponing the festivities.

As you are aware, in Islam Eids have not been prescribed only for the purposes of joy, entertainment, and visiting one another; rather they are among the symbols and acts of worship in the religion. The Sunnah on these occasions is for Muslims to celebrate and proclaim them openly which we will insha’Allah accomplish with the Eid prayer.

Our beloved Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him “PBUH”) said “The parable of the believers in their affection, mercy, and compassion for each other is that of a body. When any limb aches, the whole body reacts with sleeplessness and fever.” He PBUH taught us the importance of empathy and compassion towards one another. He likened the believers to a single body, where if one part suffers, the entire body feels the pain. Our brothers and sisters in Palestine and Gaza are indeed suffering.

While we understand this decision may disappoint some, we believe it is necessary to honor the sanctity of this month and show respect to those who have been displaced from their homes, lost loved ones, and continue to live a recurring nightmare each day.

This does not mean that you should not have a joyous day with your family. On the contrary, after the Eid prayer, we encourage you to have an enjoyable day with your loved ones while taking the opportunity to educate your children on the matter and show them how blessed and privileged they are. We will be organizing opportunities for community members to contribute to relief efforts and support initiatives aimed at providing humanitarian aid as well as sponsoring orphans in the region.

We appreciate your understanding and support and look forward to seeing you all at Eid Prayer. This year, it is estimated to take place on Wednesday, April 10. Eid prayer will be held at Keehi Lagoon Memorial, Burns Hall at 9:00AM.  As is our policy, we will confirm the date and details the evening prior.

May Allah (SWT) grant relief to those who are suffering and guide us all towards a path of peace and justice.


Warm Regards,

MAH Executive Committee
